Welcome to my January 2025 Plant Room Update! 🌿 In this video, I’ll share exciting updates from my conservatory jungle—my personal plant sanctuary where rare and tropical houseplants thrive even in the dead of winter. Whether you’re a plant enthusiast or just starting your houseplant journey, this monthly series will give you an up-close look at the challenges and triumphs of maintaining a lush plant space year-round.
Rare Plant Spotlights 🌱
This month, I’m focusing on some spectacular rare plants in my collection:
Anthurium metallicum – An eye-catching beauty with shimmering leaves.
Anthurium lutheri – Which is hating its life with me!
Alocasia azlanii – Stunning jewel-like leaves making a statement.
Anthurium luxurians – A true tropical gem.
A. magnificum x luxurians – A hybrid that’s growing better than ever.
Homalomena ‘Camouflage’ – Living up to its name with gorgeous foliage.
Pellionia repens variegated – A delightful trailing/upright addition.
Begonia bipinnatifida – Proving why begonias are so popular!
If you’re a fan of houseplants or looking for tips on growing rare species, this video is packed with insights.
Winter Growth in My Plant Room ❄️
Winter can be a challenging time for houseplant enthusiasts, but I’ve found ways to encourage growth even when the temperatures drop. I’ll discuss how I’m managing:
Lighting adjustments for shorter days.
Pest management strategies for this season.
The importance of fertilizing schedules in winter.
Creative ways to find free plant activities (because we’re all feeling the post-holiday pinch).
One key lesson this month: Be cautious about over-propagating during winter! While it’s tempting to propagate, remember that those cuttings can grow into new plants quickly, leaving you overwhelmed by summer.
